Spanish Day

We also celebrated Spanish Day in June and were joined by ‘Viva Flamenco’ , who sang and danced some traditional Spanish songs. We were also joined by Amanda Dahmani (a Salsa company), who worked with the children throughout the day. To top it all off, we had a lovely themed school dinner with Paella and churros!

MultiCultural day

These are a couple of pictures which were taken on Multicultural Day which was a celebration of the diverse cultural background of our community. It was lovely to see so many children in their traditional costumes. We were also joined by some of our parents who either performed or provided taster sessions for the children. A big thank you to everyone who helped.

Black History Month

I am sure all the parents who attended the ‘Black History’ celebration event at the Thameside theatre last month, will agree when I say that the children were truly fantastic. Every performance was brilliant including the two comperes shown in the picture on the right. It was all the more special for our school as we had been asked to host the event.

About us

Belmont Castle Academy ( formally Stifford Primary) has been in the present building since 1977 although established in 1895. The school caters for boys and girls aged 5-11 years of age. As of 2013 there were over 716 children on roll. In 2011, a project funded by the DFE capital programme added 3 additional classrooms and a brand new self contained Reception block. We have many classrooms, a music room, a library, a hall with fixed apparatus, and a wildlife area. The impressive school grounds provide a great opportunity for extending the learning outdoors with a large field and an adventure play area.Mark Jones
